Chapter 543 Changes (1)(1/2)
Li Yun was a little distracted and was soon regained his attention by the power on his arm.
Ma Jiayi's mother was like a drowning man holding a life-saving straw, holding Li Yun's hand tightly, and begging, "Master! Master, please tell us! Where is the house in Jiajia? Jiajia is there! Jiajia is still waiting for us there!"
Li Yun's eyelids twitched.
He felt that the air around him was stagnant for a moment. The yin energy belonging to Yu Li and the baby changed at this moment. The two ghosts didn't know where they were hiding, but their eyes fell on Li Yun.
The staff member who was busy lifting the photos of Wu Jingwei suddenly screamed.
Without Yu Li's obstruction, they had successfully pulled up the huge photo half, and the image of Wu Jingwei revealed was very strange. In the photo, Wu Jingwei should have had a majestic expression, but now he saw a smile on the corner of his mouth, a gloomy smile, and a bad intention.
The staff's screams and breathing sounds attracted the attention of others.
Shi Juan was the first to be scared, and subconsciously grabbed her son Zhong Chengfu's arm and shook it hard. She wanted to speak, but she didn't know where to start.
Zhong Chengfu was stunned for a few seconds before saying disdainfully to Shi Juan: "It must be their fault again. Look at them..." He quietly pointed to the Xi family who had not left yet.
Since entering the hotel, Zhong Chengfu has been energetic with a spirit of 120. His observation and thinking ability are far better than usual, and may be comparable to when he took the college entrance examination many years ago. His efforts have also gained a lot. Although the Chen and Xi families did not see a few outsiders in their eyes, and they also spoke with guns and sticks, which was sarcastic, Zhong Chengfu still saw the two families' respective calculations based on his own experience - whether it is his actual life experience, or his experience in watching bloody palace dramas and family ethical dramas with his wife - he still saw the two families' respective plans.
The Xi family also noticed the changes in the photos at this moment. Many people looked ugly, but they were not surprised. They seemed not scared by this sudden change.
Zhong Chengfu believed that the photo must have been touched by the Xi family. The auditorium was originally designed and arranged by the Xi family, and it was too convenient for them to do it. Judging from their current appearance, this is a trick that didn't work at the right time, and he was holding his breath. The Chen family has all been exposed, and their play is really in vain.
Zhong Chengfu also used his imagination and diverted his thinking, and whispered to Shi Juan: "Mom, I just said they were not kind. Look. One set up a mourning hall and scared people. The other one must have known it. He took down the photos and rebels. The photos here were still left behind, but they did not come in handy. You were almost used by them as guns! What did you say? You must have tricked you on purpose. You just wanted to think you saw a ghost. Then, at this memorial service, you would be scared? They will force you to say something they need."
Shi Juan was shocked and suspicious, and was pushed by Zhong Chengfu, and then looked at the Xi family.
The Xi family did not look like they were frightened. There was no surprise on their faces, and some people even showed regret and annoyance.
Shi Juan's eyes swept over the woman named Shanshan in the Xi family. Shanshan looked stiff. She couldn't tell her face because she put on heavy makeup. But her pupils were shaking, and she didn't respond even when the person next to her talked to her.
Zhong Chengfu also saw Shanshan and laughed gloatingly, "Stealing chickens will not make you lose rice. Look at her like that. She was so proud. The Chen family took the initiative, and they are ready for this show."
Shi Juan felt that Shanshan's expression was not that meaning, but what Zhong Chengfu said made sense.
Ma Jiayi's parents didn't have that much thought, and they just wanted Li Yun to speak and tell them the address of Ma Jiayi's house.
The Xi family seemed to be quarreled by their crying, and someone stood up and scolded them, which also spread the anger they received from the Chen family on Ma Jiayi's parents.
Li Yun looked up at the Xi family.
The middle-aged man led by the Xi family whispered with a few middle-aged men around him who were about the same age. At this time, he ended the conversation and squeezed out an ugly smile at Li Yun and walked over.
"This is Master Li, I'm lucky. I'm Xi Ling's father, and I'm in-laws with Boss Wu. Boss Wu is really..." Xi's father pretended to shake his head and sighed, and he didn't even look at Ma Jiayi's parents who were still kneeling in front of Li Yun. "I heard from the younger generation that Master Li is very capable. I wonder if Master Li can save Boss Wu?"
His eyes flashed, his words were slow, and he had some meaning.
Li Yun became surprised.
Niu Haixi's eyes lit up, he leaned into Li Yun's ear and whispered, "I want to ask you to summon Boss Wu. This is the most common job in the circle, and there are many tricks." He reminded him at this time, hoping that Li Yun would not agree so quickly and not refuse. He had to tell Li Yun about the tricks here.
Niu Haixi has never taken on such jobs because of his strength and fame. However, when he was an agent, he also introduced this kind of commission to others.
The complex sentences of this are hard to explain. Xi’s father’s idea is a typical one, which is to invite a master to summon the dead, and then lie to the dead to say something. If you meet someone who believes, the “dead” has any unfulfilled wishes, it must be done to comfort the deceased’s spirit in heaven. But if you don’t believe it, it will take some effort.
From this we can also see that this type of commission is basically a fraudulent method. Sometimes there is a client on the surface and a real client behind his back, and those insiders play the role of cheating.
Li Yun didn't need Niu Haixi to say more, and could directly find out their thoughts from Niu Haixi and Xi's father's minds. This is why he was surprised just now.
The Chen boss Chen came up and set the tone for Wu Jingwei's memorial service. Li Yun thought the Xi family would be wilted and gave up his previous calculations. Unexpectedly, Xi's father's mind changed drastically, and finally decided to use this method to compete for the Wu family's property.
This is also because Xi’s father was in trouble and he really couldn’t think of any other way.
In terms of financial resources, the Xi family is not as good as the Chen family. It is basically impossible to compete for inheritance through legal means. It is even more impossible to compete for victory or defeat in the shopping mall. What they can do is some side-minded means.
Li Yun felt Yu Li's sight again.
Yu Li was interested in Xi’s father’s idea.
This is not surprising.
If possible, Yu Li must hope that she is still alive and can continue to manage the Wu family's property until her grandson Wu Tiansheng grows up and takes over the property.
The Xi family's plan is exactly what she wants and is just right for her current situation.
Li Yun met Xi's father's expectant gaze and shook his head, "Mr. Wu is already distracted."
Father Xi was stunned.
Ma Jiayi's parents, who were still kneeling on the ground, suddenly stopped crying and begging.
Li Yun stretched out his hand and pulled Ma Jiayi's parents on the ground. He used his strength. The two middle-aged men who had lost their daughters and were deeply sad after losing their daughters could not resist at all. Seeing this, Niu Haixi also helped and held the two of them.
"When the matter here is over, I will go to that room with you." Li Yun said to Ma Jiayi's parents, and looked at Xi's father again, "It seems that the memorial service cannot be completed today, so let's go first."
He asked Ma Jiayi’s parents what they meant. How could Ma Jiayi’s parents raise objections now? The chicken nodded like a rice pecking at the rice, and they supported Li Yun’s words.
Ma Jiayi's mother kept asking, "Jia Jia is still here, right? Jia Jia is still here, in that house... She comes to see us every night, she every day..."
Just as Xi's father wanted to say something, he felt that his throat seemed to be pinched and he could not make any sound.
Li Yun paused and turned around.
Father Xi felt that he could speak again, but when he looked at Li Yun's inquiry expression, he was so scared that he dared not speak.
Li Yun calmly withdrew his gaze.
Yu Li and the baby were both here. Although they had not appeared, Li Yun had already sensed their existence. But when he thought that the baby passed through the boss's flames without any injuries, he was helpless again.
The boss didn't know where to go, and it made the "signal" bad. Now that he took action, they might have seen through the fact that he had no choice but to do it.
Li Yun paused.
Niu Haixi almost hit Li Yun's back and quickly looked at what was happening with concern.
There was no one blocking the way ahead, and nothing happened.
Li Yun stopped by himself.
As soon as the concept of "signal" flashed through my mind, Li Yun couldn't help but think of Uncle Li's old friend Jiang Longchang.
The connection between Uncle Li and Jiang Longchang can be said to be quite bumpy. If it weren't for the bad signal between Fengdu and the world, Jiang Longchang might have contacted Uncle Li long ago and sent him a clear warning. On the other hand, if Jiang Longchang hadn't been rushing to ask Uncle Li to warn him, and because of the bad signal, Uncle Li would have been wrong, the one who should have died that day would not be Uncle Li, but the lady Li Yun later. Uncle Li might have escaped the disaster and lived his 80th birthday well, or he might have just changed the order with the latter Li Yun and died one day later. If he was lucky, a few days later, and waited for Hei and Bai Wuchang to intervene in this case, Uncle Li would have truly escaped the death disaster.
No matter how you calculate it, this bad signal in Fengdu is the key.
Among the knowledge of the underworld that Li Yun knew, there is only one place in the world that has very poor "signal".
Did the boss go to Fengdu?
But the boss is a phoenix, who lives well and has only one phoenix left in the world. How did he go to Fengdu?
Li Yun immediately thought of Zhang He, the deceased cultivator.
The first encounter between him and Zhang He was when he somehow saw Zhang He looking for someone outside the gate of Fengdu City.
People like Zhang He have the ability to go to the gate of Fengdu to visit. It is not surprising that the boss has the ability to enter Fengdu City?
Furthermore, the boss may not have entered Fengdu City, but may have just arrived outside Fengdu City.
Li Yun had also arrived at that desert-like space before. It was the Yellow Spring Road, the space between life and death.
Although Li Yun had not seen the legendary Three Life Stone, Naihe Bridge, nor Huangquan, or even a "road", he knew that the desert outside Fengdu City was the place where people's souls wandered after death. It was not like Fengdu City, it should be a place where there were no rules and easy to enter and exit.
The boss may have gone there... but what does the boss do there? When he was traveling around, he happened to pass there or was he going to take a shortcut?
Li Yun thought in confusion.
※※※※※
Jiang Longchang was a little bored playing with the cell phone given to him by Uncle Li.
This is no longer the fake phone that Uncle Li burned for him. He had reunited with Uncle Li and Aunt Li in the living room before. Uncle Li bought him a good phone, which was the latest Huawei model, and he also said it was a flagship phone. Jiang Longchang didn't understand what a flagship phone was. Uncle Li actually didn't understand either. However, Aunt Li explained it to the two old men, so that they could be confused. They only knew that this phone was good and this phone was expensive, so that's all.
After Jiang Longchang took the phone and used it for a while, he found that it was much better than the fake phone signal that Uncle Li had burned to him before. In the past, he often had a bunch of garbled codes, which was rare after changing his phone.
Jiang Longchang was very proud, showing off when he saw someone, and even imitated Aunt Li to explain to others what a flagship phone is.
Naturally, the objects he showed off were old men and women who were similar to him, or "young men" who were several rounds older than him after his death.
Among young people, they have died in recent years. They know that those Huatou who play with smartphones will die earlier. Even if they die at the age of fashion, they will not keep up with the earth-shaking changes in the world.
Young people who have passed away over the years have only envy Jiang Longchang's new phone. Without Jiang Longchang showing off, they kept their saliva and asked Jiang Longchang to borrow his mobile phone to play. Their family burned paper money for them and also made fake mobile phone gift boxes, which were similar to the set that Uncle Li had burned for Jiang Longchang, and of course some were even more luxurious. Among them, some people had received the latest novels and comics sent by their good brothers and sisters, but no one would burn a brand new flagship phone for the dead.
A group of young people played with their mobile phones, and some people were begging Jiang Longchang to go back to the living during the Qingming Festival to ask Uncle Li to bring him a new mobile phone. Some people even had a sudden idea and wanted Uncle Li to help buy computers and game consoles.
Jiang Longchang sent them all back.
But some people are still unwilling to give up and say their home address and bank card password, willing to "pay out of their own pocket"; some are also unique, racking their brains to dream for their families every day, hoping that they can have a flash of inspiration and prepare some good things for themselves.
Jiang Longchang's show-off continued from the winter solstice to the previous few days, and the topic also lasted for several months at the city gate.
In Fengdu, there are too few new things and there is nothing to communicate with. It is normal to talk about a topic for a few months. Jiang Longchang suddenly stopped showing off, not because he said he was tired of this matter, but because his flagship phone suddenly had a bad signal again.
"I just said it's a base station problem. Fengdu has to build some base stations. No matter how good the mobile phone is, it's useless." A young ghost spoke at the gate of the city.
He calculated the date of birth, which was much younger than Jiang Longchang. He was about the age after his death, but he was about Jiang Longchang. Jiang Longchang showed off his flagship phone, so he actively joined in the fun. He loved this new mobile phone in the living room. He borrowed it from Jiang Longchang several times and played much better than Jiang Longchang.
He is also a member of the "ingenious" party. He guarded the city gate every day, not only to queue up to ask Jiang Longchang to borrow his mobile phone, but also to be closer to the world so that he can successfully carry his dreams and fantasize that he can go home during the Qingming Festival and see the game consoles prepared at home.
“…It’s better to buy stand-alone games, without having to connect to the Internet, it’s easy to play.”
"I don't know what stand-alone games are out now. When I die, GTA will be out with 6."
"I'm still creating a new folder."
